Learn About Global Decarbonisation Strategies at LCAW

While many countries and organisations are working on cutting emissions, the global rate of decarbonisation is still too slow to stay in line with the 1.5 C global warming limit.

The Global Decarbonisation Strategies panel at Sustainability LIVE @ London Climate Action Week - The Leadership Summit is set to tackle this issue by discussing solutions for emissions reduction.

The event will bring together executives and sustainability leaders from a range of industries to discuss strategies to make a positive environmental impact.

This is an exclusive event and those interested in attending can register their interest now.

Meet the speakers

Nicole Sautter, Senior Director, Global Sustainability, American Express Global Business Travel

Nicole will be speaking on the panel, sharing knowledge about how to build a net zero future in the travel sector.

She has more than a decade of experience working across travel and sustainability, including leisure travel, hotels, carbon markets, renewable energy, business travel and aviation.

Her role focuses on the implementation of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in the sector.

Nicole says: “We help drive the industry towards net zero by accelerating the decarbonisation of aviation with SAF and unlocking investment. We strive to make SAF business as usual for business travel.

“We envision a future with billions of gallons of SAF displacing fossil-based jet fuel.”

Jessica Hyman, Chief Sustainability Officer, Atlassian

Jessica is set to speak on the panel, discussing the expertise gained from her time at Atlassian, where she leads the climate, human rights and responsible technology, sustainability governance and the Atlassian Foundation teams.

Under her leadership, Atlassian has procured 100% renewable energy for operations and has set science-based targets to achieve net zero emissions by 2040.

Jessica’s leadership was recognised in Sustainability Magazine’s Top 250 Women in Sustainability 2026 list.
